It might be obvious and old news, but on my rare logins to #Instagram I saw a new message of their privacy policy to be updated this month: Every content from every post will be used to train their AI.
If you are a visual artist of any kind and use the platform, #Meta will use your creation against you, literally. You either learn how to publish and own your data, or you’ll be stolen.
@clerton I tried #pixelfed but there’s no global federated feed like we have on mastodon. So you start with an empty feed which is boring if you want to attract your friends.
@mykhaylo I think there will be no exact 1-1 replacement, but #pixelfed still an great alternative I believe it will improve with time. It still a niche so far...
Likewise #Mastodon growth, I also believe that this new way of selling public data through #AI will impulse initiatives like #pixelfed.
